Thanks

what day does the interview day end? and when do they usually send the email of the formal confirmation and additional info?
I have a problem because I have not heard anything from Columbia but I want to go back to where I live which is outside of the US. When I leave the US, probably in November, I will not come back for any additional interviews because it is just too far.
If I leave I think I will have to withdraw my application from all the schools I have not heard from. I would too sad to get an interview after I left.
I completed my application at Columbia on August 1st. I also sent them an update recently saying that I will be leaving so if they want to interview me it would be best to know now. I got a response saying that the information would be added to my file.
Do people ever get interview invites long after they were complete? Is there any chance I will leave and then get an invite (especially since I already sent an email and got no invite makes me think I wont ever get one, or maybe Columbia doesn't care about those emails)?

I didn't read through the entire thread, but people have been mentioning that students are allowed to take 2 free classes per semester at any Columbia school. Is there any official info on that on the website (I didn't see anything)? I want to know more about that policy, because I'm thinking about applying to columbia and would love to be able to take some philosophy classes while in med school.
also, do any other schools offer something like this?
I've been complete for roughly two months now and have not heard anything from Columbia. Would it be appropriate to send an update letter with recent honors and awards that I have won (along with new activities)? Is Columbia receptive to these types of letters? Thanks 🙂
I have seen it somewhere in the loads of columbia information on their page, but as someone who has personally taken advantage of this I can assure you it is true.
just got an interview invite against all odds!
canadian applicant, marked complete august 9th AND i had sent an in the area email which they acknowledged then never got back to me so I assumed I wasnt getting an interview (I interviewed in NY two days ago ><) but im ready for round 2 in NY!
so don't lose hope if they don't get back to your in the area request.
I'm sure this question has been asked before but I have horrible internet access and can't browse through the entire thread. Is Columbia receptive to "in country" emails?

I have sent them a couple in the area e-mails and the first one took just under 2 weeks for the "add to your file" reply, the second reply however was much quicker. Apparently neither had made much of an impact though as I am still waiting for an invite. I can't say if they help or not but they do acknowledge them.
I assume allot of you also apply to Cornell and I can tell you they replied back the same day, and I received an invite within a few days. So I suggest to send your in the area e-mails to both schools. Good luck!
They both replied the same day. Cornell at 7.30 am.
yes, oct 15th was the last date to add to amcas, sorryis it too late to apply here?
I received an interview request Monday via email. Submitted secondary mid August. Does anyone know the interview format?
I've received an II but they gave me only one date to choose from, and I have something else oging on that I absolutely can't miss. Does anyone know how accommodating P&S is to requests for alternate interview dates?

Does anyone know if Columbia accepts file updates pre-II? If so, in what format?
You know instead of casting lines in every thread for schools you have applied to, you could just call or email the schools.
Columbia accepts updated by email.

lol he's going for some pretty difficult schools too
Any IIs recently for people who were complete on or after 10/3?
For those who have interviewed, does Columbia tell you when to expect a final decision? If so, what's the timeline?
Thanks so much!
Does anyone have questions about Columbia?
I was complete on 9/13 and received an II on 10/18 and interviewed 10/28 if that is of any help
